So hello all, as the topic says Ive been getting a blank screen at times when starting from a cold boot. No leds are lit, fans spinning, keyboard lit, just nothing on screen, I can do a restart and it's fine. This has been happening on and off, sometimes it'll cold boot just fine.

My specs:
ASRock X670E Steel legend Bios 2.00
Gigabyte Eagle 4080 RTX
GSkill FlareX 5 DDR-5 6000
Sound Blaster AE-5

So I figured the issue out, it was the bios 2.0. Going to bios 1.28 solved the problem, no more blank screens at cold boot. I noticed there is bios 2.02, but I'm a little skeptical of flashing with it. I hope this isn't always the case with ASRock bios updates where it's hit or miss.
